FYI to the SFV Business Journal. The LA River doesn't terminate in San Pedro, it terminates in Long Beach.
Thanks for the clarification Marshal. I am guessing it says San Pedro because the city jurisdication ends there. If it were to continue into Long Beach, I figure the city of Long Beach would have to do something about it.
